General terms and conditions of business of Konradin Business GmbH for the direktabo.de Internet portal
Klicken Sie bitte hier für die deutsche Version der Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen
direktabo.de is an Internet portal where various vendors sell products (including magazine subscriptions). direktabo.de itself does not sell any products and, as an agent, therefore does not become a contractual party of any contracts concluded exclusively between ordering parties and vendors. Also, contracts concluded via direktabo.de are fulfilled exclusively by ordering parties and vendors.
Minors are not permitted to place orders.
We draw attention to the fact that interruptions of portal availability and unavailability times may arise by virtue of the technical design, in particular the fact that it is accessed exclusively over the Internet.
1. A contract comes into being between an ordering party and a vendor as follows:
a) The presentation of products at direktabo.de is not a legally valid offering by a vendor. Rather, by placing an order the ordering party submits a legally binding purchase offer. The vendor accepts a purchase offer by expressly sending an order confirmation by e-mail to the ordering party or by delivering the goods ordered. An e-mail does not constitute binding acceptance of an order. It is merely a confirmation of receipt of an order by direktabo.de or a vendor.
b) Insofar as they exist, the applicable vendor's terms and conditions of business will apply to the contract. Ordering parties can download and/or print the respective GTCs during the ordering process. To be able to complete an order, ordering parties must declare their consent to the respective vendor's GTCs.
2. Product prices will be orientated to the prices listed on direktabo.de at the time of ordering, and already include the statutory amount of value added tax. Packaging, transport and miscellaneous ancillary costs will also be stated on the Internet pages of direktabo.de and will be repeated during the ordering process.
3. Delivery dates, terms of payment and applicable termination provisions will be determined by the respective vendor's general terms and conditions of business. Vendors themselves will be solely responsible for the content, the design and the presentation of general terms and conditions of business, which will not be checked by direktabo.de, especially not for their legitimacy.
Cancellation policy
4. Right of revocation
You have the right to revoke this contract within fourteen days without stating reasons.
Provided you have concluded a purchase agreement for a product, the right of revocation will apply for fourteen days as from the day
a) on which you or a third party designated by you, who is not the carrier, take or takes possession of the product.
b) In the event of a contract for several products that you have ordered within the scope of a single order and which are delivered separately, on the day on which you or a third party designated by you, who is not the carrier, take or takes possession of the last product.
c) In the event of a contract for delivery of a product in several partial consignments, on the day on which you or a third party designated by you, who is not the carrier, take or takes possession of the last partial consignment or the last item.
d) In the event of a contract for regular delivery of products throughout a defined period of time, on the day on which you or a third party designated by you, who is not the carrier, take or takes possession of first product.

by means of an unequivocal declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, a fax or an e-mail), of your decision to revoke this contract. You can use the attached sample revocation form for this purpose, but you are not obliged to use it.
You can also complete the sample revocation form or any other unequivocal declaration electronically on our website (www.direktabo.de/widerrufsformular). If you make use of this option, we will immediately send you (e.g. by e-mail) a confirmation of receipt of such a revocation.
To maintain the revocation period, it suffices for you to send a notification of the fact that you are exercising your right to revocation before expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of revocation
If you revoke this contract, we are obliged to refund to you all payments we have received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of additional costs arising out of your choice of a different mode of delivery from the lowest-cost standard delivery that we offer). We are obliged to refund payments immediately, at the latest within fourteen days from the day when we received the notification of your revocation of this contract. We use the same means of payment for this refund that you used in the original transaction, provided nothing to the contrary has been expressly agreed with you. Under no circumstances will you be charged fees due to this refund. We may refuse the refund until the goods have been returned to us or you have provided evidence that you have returned the goods, depending on which is the earlier point in time.
You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case at the latest within fourteen days of the day when you inform us of revocation of this contract. The period has been observed if you send off the goods before expiry of the period of fourteen days. You will bear the direct costs of returning goods.
You only need to pay for any possible value loss of the goods if such a value loss is attributable to handling of the goods in a way that is not necessary to check their condition, properties and functioning.
End of the cancellation policy
5. The ordering party will be liable for ensuring that the data they have specified is truthful and complete. The respective vendor may demand that the ordering party present any necessary power of agency. The ordering party will notify the respective vendor of any occurring changes to their data immediately.
6. The ordering party's necessary data, in particular their name and address, will be gathered, processed and used for fulfilment of the contractual relationship between the respective vendor and the ordering party. direktabo.de will not pass on this data to third parties outside the scope of this purpose.
The ordering party will consent to direktabo.de informing them about interesting offers. To this end, direktabo.de will require the consent of the ordering party, which they can issue by clicking on the applicable button while ordering. Such consent is not necessary for completion of an order. An ordering party can revoke their consent at any time.
7. If one of these provisions should be or become invalid, this will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
8. Online resolution of disputes pursuant to Article 14 of the Regulation (EU) No 524/2013 and consumer resolution of disputes pursuant to § 36 VSBG (German Consumers' Dispute Resolution Act):
The European Commission provides a platform for online resolution of disputes (ODR) which can be found through http://ec.europa.eu/odr.

We are currently not willing to participate in resolution of disputes proceedings in front of a consumer arbitration board.
